Admission Deficiencies

Applications may be accepted into the graduate program with Bachelor degrees in areas other than Civil Engineering (i.e. related areas such as mechanical engineering, materials science, physics). These students, however, may need to complete a number of additional courses to overcome their deficiencies. These courses cannot be listed on a student’s Program of Study. Alternatively, a prospective graduate student can be admitted into Civil and Environmental Engineering Department by joining the Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture’s interdisciplinary program of Master of Science in Engineering for a master degree, or Engineering Science for a PhD degree, without the need to complete the additional courses.
